The Chairman looked at the woman, not clear on what she meant. "Excuse me?"
"This..." Grace muttered, still staring at the screen, "I donât understand their recent shift in trying to appeal to women only, but I must say, theyâre on the right path to succeed in that, in my opinion. This must be fangirl bait. Premium-grade, industrial-level parasocial engineering."
"Sheâs right," Reaves added. "Theyâre going full GFE on the masses. Cut off male access to create scarcity, emotionally prime the female viewers through soft exposure, and then spike it with sincerity and lighthearted fun right before going back to high-stakes dungeon raids."
The Chairman stared at them both, then pinched the bridge of his nose again.
Another ping hit the chamberâthis time from ARCâs regional HQ.
[Priority Alert: Project: Chimera TamerâUpdate Required Immediately]
Grace sighed. "Sir, weâve got seven orgs now probing our network. Even the Vatican has reportedly issued an internal memo asking if Kaiden qualifies as a âSaint of Eroticism.â"
The Chairman stood.
"Right. Thatâs it. Shut down the next diplomatic backchannel that so much as tries to sneak a mole near him. Double Reavesâ field support. Freeze Kaidenâs public meeting availability for seventy-two hours."
"Yes, sir."
"Also..." The Chairman glanced at the stream title again.
Sinners Boot Camp
"... I want a full psychological breakdown of all Valkyries."
Agent Reaves nodded.
...
[STREAM STARTING...]
Title: Sinnerâs Boot Camp
The screen opened to black. A cozy, ambient gym music played in the background.
The first visual came into view. It was a panning shot across the polished flooring of a private gym.
Rows of weights could be seen. Holographic stat-tracking screens floated near equipment, marking them as artifacts, not just old-school gym items from the old world.
Chat began rolling.
- DemonDaddyDelight: OMG is this a training arc rn??
- SoftestSubForSin: If Kaiden starts explaining form, Iâm leaving my own body
- LustfulLibrarian:: Why do I suddenly want to become a gym mat
Then the camera tilted upward.
And the viewers realized...
They were looking through Kaidenâs POV.
He stood before a massive mirrored wall, and in the reflection, there he was.
Kaiden was wearing a black muscle tank and athletic pants that hugged his frame in all the right ways. And beside him stood his three Sinsworn Valkyries.
Aria, already mid-stretch, hair tied up, wearing a dark crimson crop top and gray yoga pants that hugged every muscle on her toned figure. A sweatband hugged her wrist, a sign it wasnât her first rodeo and also that she meant business.
Nyx, true to her preference to show her feminine assets off, had her top hanging low, her chest doing the absolute most, practically bouncing even when she wasnât moving. Her leggings were beautiful pink to match her hair.
Luna, the purple-haired gamer girl, was visibly unsure how to stand in gym attire. Sheâd already gone once with the girls when Kaiden was messing up an entire criminal brothel, but the Storm Valkyrie still felt like an alien. She wore violet yoga pants and a black crop hoodie with the word "AFK" across the perky chest.
- Lapdog of the Empress: THE SUPREME EMPRESS IS IN LEGGINGS???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
- BunnyPrincess: Nyxâs bounciness makes me feel more insecure about myself than when I registered to work at a maid cafe that was desperately hiring basically anyone who had a pair of tits and they denied me for lacking in âcharm.â
- GymRatGoddess: #AriaSupremacy #AriaSupremacy #AriaSupremacy #AriaSupremacy #AriaSupremacy
A wave of hearts, flame emojis, and similar messages flooded the chat.
But then...
- MinMaxMage: Who tf cares about a home gym stream. Do dungeons or log off, bro. What a clown, lol
The response was immediate and overwhelming.
- BratWithBattlePlans:: stfu nerd
- VelvetViolence: We donât need dungeon clips. This is Kaidenâs body weâre talking about.
- BounceBunnyNyx: Fighting is for everyone. Watching him flirt with his girls is for the cultured only.
- DemonDaddyDelight: Youâre just mad your streamer doesnât benchpress relationships đ
- SimpSizedSoul: You have eyes but cannot see Mount Tai
Kaiden let out a chuckle as he read bits of the chat.
"I appreciate the support, truly. But donât worry, weâre not here just to train. Todayâs stream has a special twist. Iâll be training together with one of my lovely Valkyries at a time... and you get to vote what we do."
The chat exploded.
- StarstruckSellsword: KAIDEN-GYM-DATE LETâS GOOOOOOOO
- ThickThighTheorist: SQUATS. ALWAYS SQUATS.
- PillowPrincess: Benchpress with Luna sitting on you!
- SlowBurnSinner:: Wall sits but with aria straddling you đđ
- R18: Nyx + yoga = Instant death.
Kaiden held up a finger, and the stream instantly got a new window where data was displayed.
"Poll going live. First pair: Me and Nyx. Youâve got 30 seconds to vote."
Nyxâs smile turned feral as she stretched her arms toward the air.
"Vote wisely, girls... This body mightâve not been honed in gyms, but Iâm very~ flexible."
The chat lost its collective mind.
Viewer count surged.
Donation bar ticked up like a rocket.
The poll window kept updating its data based on the stream comments, but giving added weight to donation messages. The four training options danced across it in blue script, each accompanied by animated icons:
Plank Kiss Challenge â Stay up, lock eyes, and donât break form... or lips.
Partner Squats â One holds the other bridal-style while squatting. Sweat and eye contact mandatory.
Flexibility Testing â Nyx stretches with Kaiden helping... hands-on. Very hands-on.
Push-up Motivation â Kaiden does push-ups while Nyx lounges across his back.
đš Plank Kiss Challenge â 17%
đ§ Partner Squats â 22%
đŠ Push-up Motivation â 24%
đ„ Flexibility Testing â 37%
The votes kept on going... but the real push came when one fangirl dropped 25 Chronos just before the timer hit zero, tipping the scale with a "Nyx POV, please" message accompanying it.
DING!
"Final Tally Confirmed: FLEXIBILITY TESTING wins!"
Nyxâs grin stretched wider than her unfairly sensual thigh gap.
"Ooooh, you girls have good taste... Thanks for selecting something fun," she purred. She grabbed Kaidenâs hand and pulled him toward the long black mat already rolled out beside the enchanted dumbbell racks.
While walking, she added in a sultry tone, "Guys, Iâm going to be recording now instead of Kaiden. As explained in the announcements, we decided us ladies will not show our bodies off."
Laptdog of the Empress: NOOOOOooooOOOOOOooooOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nyx ignored any protests the chatters might put forth. "With that out of the way, letâs begin, shall we?"
